No need to bring down tank,if your car is the type that fuel pump can be accessed from passengers seat. Tel them to remove the pump assembly,suck out all the fuel using a hose. Pour the fuel into a bucket and inspect if water settles at rhe bottom. Also check the fuel pump,water might have gotten into it. Its doing overheating,yourfuel pump. Most filling stations sell water mixed with fuel as fuel. Naija is dead
Tripleoluwa: Hi people, I presented myself for accreditation at the Agunbiade population office in Somolu local council today 26-042023, for the position of supervisor that I applied for in the coming population census.
I had barely sat down before the man sitting at the desk said my name was not on the computer list. I was shocked because I had been approved online and my bank account had been submitted. He requested for my surname as he punched the keyboard. Seconds later, he said my surname is not on thier list. I knew right there that he was lying because my immediate sister successfully did her accreditation on Monday. So how come my surname no dey there?...
In a nutshell, I think the process has been politicised or compromised. There's a seeming attempt to expunge people's names in place of others. Because I see no reason why they refused to paste the list for everyone to check.
Does anything work well in Nigeria without politics?
I am pregnant and by special grace of God, I am expected to have my baby in 3 months time. The issue is that I don't want my mother to come for my omugwo. I am her only daughter but she hate me so much. At first I thought it is old age but she's just 60+ and I have seen older women treating their daughter right.
The last omugwo she came I saw hell, I gave birth on Monday and she came on Thursday. I had 3rd degree tear(that type that they will stitch from anus to vagina) I explained to her that I can't stand for long because of the pain. Meanwhile before she came, a woman from my husband place was taking care of me and she won't let me come down from bed except to eat, bath, breastfeed my baby and sleep. But when she saw my mum, she stopped coming. The woman already prepared soup and kept inside freezer on Wednesday before my mum arrived. It was that soup we ate till Sunday. On Sunday morning I asked my mum what we will eat and she told me to wait for people that are coming to visit us so I can send any of them to market and cook. Like how can I send my visitor message? So I waited for my husband and son to come back from church. I just took tea and also served her. My husband went to market and bought the things I needed to make stew. My baby was sleeping and I went inside kitchen to make stew. My mum sat down comfortably in the sitting room watching film and gisting with visitors that came to see me and my baby. I was in serious pain but I have to cook what me and everybody will eat. I served her the food after cooking and she gladly ate it. She's is neither sick or having pain anywhere.
My mother never cook anything in my house for 4 months till she left. The day I mentioned it to her. She started crying that she knows I hate her like my father. Like how? I even expected her to apologise and lie that she wasn't feeling fine that day. Among all her children, I give her more money but she always show me I am not important.
The problem is, even though this is my third child, I can barely take care of child under 1 month. Apart from cooking, my mum always makes me cry by telling me some very harsh word. She will force me to drink very hot water that I can't even pour on my skin. If I refuse to drink she will get angry and start her wahala again. I don't just want her to come to my house again for my mental health. O ti su mi 😭😭
How was your relationship with your mother while growing up?
AustineCJ: My sis planned for a small after court wedding reception, my mum went behind to invite church members, extended families, relatives in the village ..... sponsored their food and drinks that there’s no way her daughter will do a small reception. 😂😂
I sincerely apologize for allowing a toxic political banner advert which said, "Lagos can never be run from Anambra; go and vote" to run on Nairaland for several hours on Wednesday, March 15, 2023.
The mischievously worded banner advert appears to have been part of an ethnically divisive political campaign aimed at securing Lagos State for the ruling party by instilling fear in Yoruba people, making them believe that Igbo people intended to "take over" Lagos State.
Such ethnically divisive political campaigns have no place in a forward-thinking democracy, and for this reason, the ad should have been taken down instantly. No harm was intended, but my lack of forethought about the ethics of that type of advert led to a disappointing outcome.
We should have had a clear policy against accepting negative and ethnically divisive ads on Nairaland, we should have communicated it to all advertisers, and we should have taken down any advert that violated that policy instantly. This will all be in place before the next election.
We made almost N16,000 from the ad. We will double it and donate it to victims of political violence in Lagos.
Please, do NOT give up on Nigeria. The times are challenging, but TOGETHER, we will overcome.
Sincerely, Seun Osewa.
Just look at this agbaya!
APOLOGY NOT ACCEPTED
You have always been a tribal and religious big-ot.
The truth is, the Igbo true color came out after PO lost the election and the true Yorubas will never allow your GRV win. Sanwolu by the special Grace of God is our re-Governor Elect of Lagos
Anyway, 18th March no far again, let’s see how this conversation will turn by this time next week
Lower your expectations so that you heal fast when Sanwo-olu will fail
The question resurges: is this President Buhari truly a Nigerian? How could a president of a country born in the country watch the country's citizens languish in this type of man-made problem? Not possible.
Please I sincerely need your help/assistance/advice to help me secure US VISA
My wife younger brother that’s a doing a Masters Programme in one of the Universities in USA will be rounding up his programme by May, 2023 and the school gave him 3 slots opportunity to invite his family members and he gave me a slot of invitation to the USA.

[quote author=naijamanyoutube post=120334433]I took a walk around downtown in São Paulo. Naija people full here. I have a video coming, of a shopping mall filled with Nigerian businesses.
But for now enjoy this one, and let me know what you think about São Paulo.
Vincenzomum: I am married to a Igbo man. We are based in Italy. We have 4 children 3 together. I have 3 girls for him. I tested positive for baby number 5 and we were discussing about the gender, my husband said something that makes me feel so bad.
He wants a son so bad. He said in Igbo tribe, a man is nothing without a son. I asked him what if we had another baby girl he said he will have no choice but to go to Nigeria and marry another woman who will bear sons for him so he can be a real man.
I asked him if he was serious then he changed his words saying he was joking, he doesn't mind the sex of our baby as long as the baby is healthy that is what matter.
I have been restless since he has mentioned about marrying a second wife even though he said it was a joke but I know that he wasn't joking, he was serious.
I want to know from igbo people, is it true that a man is nothing without a son and also what if the wife only bore female children is it compulsory for the man to marry a second one in Igbo tribe to bear him sons?
Mummy Vincenzo, how's Vincezo doing? (From your posts, it seems you and hubby are always quarrelling about one issue or another one your kids)
Well, the male child is important in every tribe, not only to the Igbo tribe (so they say)
It depends on your husband. I can tell you for free that your husband is not joking about marrying another wife if you don't bore him a son. He told you he's joking just to appease you so you don't feel bad.
See, in this modern age, every child is important, but if your husband want a male child, discuss with him and make him understand he's the determinant because he has X and Y chromosomes. I believe your husband is well educated, and not an "oso ahia"
But no matter what you do, don't sleep with another man in the name of getting a male child. (Yes, many women do that).
Franzinni: you are right I don't think the soldiers even did enough... They for deal with them pass like that so they will never have the mind to try it again. Anybody against the soldiers no get single sense .. do you know what that uniform represents ? To get mind put your shoe on a soldiers back ... My God!!
Many Nigerians think certain laws run on their emotions or how they feel.
It's either you're a soldier or someone in your family is a soldier but whichever one it is, those soldier must be fished out and taught a very bitter lesson. Kudos to the student.
In a sane society, soldiers are only confined in the military base and war zone only. but in Nigeria na to dey flex muscles for unarmed civilians dey Sabi.
Good!
In sane society, students won't beat soldier the way they beat this one, no matter what. He who fetches an ant-infested wood shouldn't complain when lizards come visiting.
Elkidz: Please I need a good advice on this issue from matured minds.
A friend of mine called me yesterday and was seriously crying that she wants her daughter that just got married to come back.
REASON: Last year, her daughter of 21 years got married. From the look of things, the marriage was contracted on falsehood. The man( daughter's hubby) was introduced to the girl by another woman. The young man and his mother presented themselves as very good people. The young man claimed to have money and working in Abuja as "interior decorator" . He made the girl believed that he has money where's he was borrowing to do the the marriage rites. After the first stage of the traditional rites, he lied to the girl that bank seized his money because someone from abroad sent more than the approved amount (ie. millions) into his account. The girl had to use the little money she received as salary to sort out certain things.
To cut the long story short, marriage was scheduled, on the eve of the wedding (the bridal shower night) , the young man beat the girl blue and black to the embarrassment of everyone present including his own friends, that was how the bridal shower ended with the poor girl crying all throughout the night. This is just because of flimsy excuse, to make matters worst, the girl was some weeks old pregnant which he's aware of. To worsen the situation, after marriage, the man left the lady in the village with the parents, two days after marriage he travelled for a job, while the girl is left alone in the village without any pocket money and without any job since she's stopped the job she was doing before marriage. She's just Living at the mercy of the guy's parents with the mother treating her like trash.
Please Mod kindly push to the front page, I need matured advice.
First, I no dey like story wey dey start from middle. What happened on the eve of bridal shower that made the man beat her? Give us the full gist.
Secondly, the girl went into that marriage because of money. She should have carried out her due diligence on the man who "lives in Abuja"
Thirdly, the girl should leave the boy's parent's house asap now she is still alive. The girl's family should go and bundle her back from that marriage
Thanks. I bought a liter of it last week and I'm scared to make the next move never some are saying I should drain it and refill while you said I shouldn't. Please can I chat you up on WhatsApp? I will request a chat with you via email so that we can share Whatsapp number and communicate better. Thanks once again brother.
